Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of preparing a high-activity hydrotreating catalyst for hydrocarbon oil, especially such that meets the requirement of reducing the sulfur content in a light oil.
- a hydrotreating catalyst composed of a porous catalyst material such as alumina, silica, titania or active charcoal and active metals of a metal of the Group VI of the Periodic Table such as molybdenum or tungsten and a metal of the Group VIII of the same such as cobalt or nickel as supported on the material is used.
- the active metals are supported on the catalyst material in the form of their oxides which are not active. Therefore, suitable pre-sulfurization is applied to the catalyst so as to convert the oxides into the corresponding sulfides before use.

Description
- The present invention relates to a method of preparing a high-activity hydrotreating catalyst for hydrocarbon oil, especially such that meets the requirement of reducing the sulfur content in a light oil.
- As a catalyst to be used for hydrotreating hydrocarbon oil, for example, for hydrogenation, desulfurization, denitrogenation and decomposition of the same, a hydrotreating catalyst composed of a porous catalyst material such as alumina, silica, titania or active charcoal and active metals of a metal of the Group VI of the Periodic Table such as molybdenum or tungsten and a metal of the Group VIII of the same such as cobalt or nickel as supported on the material is used. The active metals are supported on the catalyst material in the form of their oxides which are not active. Therefore, suitable pre-sulfurization is applied to the catalyst so as to convert the oxides into the corresponding sulfides before use.
- However, it is known that, in a hydrotreating catalyst, since the active sites of the catalyst are formed on the surfaces of the active metal oxides therein, the number of the active sites increases with enlargement of the exposed surface area of the active metal sulfides to give, as a result, a high-activity catalyst. For the purpose of enlarging the exposed surface area of the active metal sulfides in the catalyst, formation of a fine powder of active metal sulpnides to give a fine dispersion of them has been attempted and various methods for the purpose have heretofore been proposed. For instance, EP0181035(A2) has disclosed a method of preparing a hydrotreating catalyst in which a mixed liquid comprising a nitrogen-containing organic compound such as nitrilotriacetic acid, ethylenedimainetetraacetic acid or diethylenetriamine and active metals is infiltrated into a material such as alumina or silica and finally the resulting material is dried at a temperature of 200°C or lower. In accordance with the method, complexing ions are formed between the active metal and the nitrogen-containing organic compound and the resulting complexes are supported on the material so as to prevent coagulation of the active metals and to attain high dispersion of them. As a result, the catalyst obtained by the method have a higher active value than conventional catalysts. Recently, however, a requirement of reducing the sulphur content in a light oil due to legal controls on the exhaust gas has been submitted (the report of making the sulphur content in a light oil to be 0.05 % by weight or less, as submitted to the related government authorities). In order to attain the object as intended by the requirement, the catalyst as prepared by the method was found to be still unsatisfactory.,
- US-A-3,232,887 discloses an aqueous solution for use in impregnating a catalyst carrier comprising at least one Group VIB metallic element and at least one Group VIII element and a water soluble orthophosphoric acid.
- EP-A-0357295 discloses a catalyst for the hydrotreating of hydrocarbons, the catalyst comprising: a carrier substance consisting essentially of an oxide of aluminium and/or an oxide hydrate of aluminium, at least one selected from water-soluble compounds of metals of Group VI and Group VIII of the Periodic Table and at least one organic compounds selected from mercapto-carboxylic acids of formula HS-(CH₂)n-COOR (where n is 1 to 3; R is H, alkali metal, alkaline earth metal or ammonium group or alkyl group with 1-10 carbons), thio-acids of formula R′-COSH (where R′ is monovalent hydrocarbon with 1-15 carbons), amino-substituted mercaptans of formula H₂-N-R˝-SH (R˝ is divalent hydrocarbon with 1-15 carbons), dimercaptans of formula HS-R˝-SH (R˝ is same as above) and mercapto-alcohols of formula (RaS-R˝-(OH)n (where R˝ is hydrocarbon with 1-15 carbons; Ra is H or alkyl group with 1-2 carbons; and n is 1-2), and optionally phosphoric acid. The catalyst requires neither presulphurization nor heat-treatment and can directly be applied to hydrotreating hydrocarbons.
- The present applicant already proposed a method for preparing a hydrotreating catalyst in which an aqueous solution of a mixture of a hydroxycarboxylic acid such as glycolic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid or gluconic acid and active metals is applied to a catalyst material by dipping or kneading and thereafter the resulting material is dried at a temperature of 200°C or lower. In accordance with the method, since a hydroxycarboxylic acid is used as a comlexing agent and the catalyst is not finally fired but is merely dried at a temperature of 200°C or lower, the hydroxycarboxylic acid is not decomposed but is stably held on the catalyst material and the active metal ions are complexed with the stable hydroxycarboxylic acid so that the thermal coagulation of the active metal sulfides too often occurs after presulfurization of the catalyst may noticeably be inhibited. As a result, the active metal sulfides may well be supported on the material in the form of a high dispersion. According to the method, therefore, a hydrotreating catalyst having a higher activity than other conventional hydrotreating catalysts to which a nitrogen-containing organic compound has been added can be obtained characteristically.
- Where high-level desulfurization, or so-called deep desulfurization, of hydrocarbon oil is attained by the use of a conventional hydrotreating catalyst, a much more severe operation condition for hydrotreatment than an ordinary operation condition for the same is needed. As a result, the catalyst used is easily deteriorated and the catalyst life is shortened so that the operation cost is naturally elevated. On the other hand, where the above-mentioned catalyst as obtained with a hydroxycarboxylic acid is used in deep desulfurization of hydrocarbon oil, the hydrotreating operation may well be carried out under the conventional operation condition so that the current operation cost level may be maintained in the case. However, it is desired to effect the hydrotreating operation at a lower cost for the purpose of making provision for unforeseen elevation of the cost of crude oil. Under the situation, if a hydrotreating catalyst having a higher activity could be developed, deep sulfurization of hydrocarbon oil could be carried out under a milder condition than the status quo. Therefore, it is an urgent necessity for those skilled in the art to develop such a high-activity catalyst.
- The object of the present invention is to provide a method of preparing a hydrotreating catalyst for hydrocarbon oil, which catalyst has a catalyst activity extremely higher than that of the above-mentioned hydroxycarboxylic acid-added hydrotreating catalyst and is possible to reduce the hydrotreating operation cost with it.
- The present inventors earnestly studied for the purpose of overcoming the above-mentioned problems in the prior art and of attaining the above-mentioned object of the present invention and, as a result, have found that the object of the invention can be attained by a method of using at least one of inorganic oxides and their hydrates as a catalyst material and adding thereto active metals optionally along with phosphorus, a determined amount of particular carboxylic acid(s) and a determined amount of particular organic sulfur compound(s), followed by kneading and shaping the resulting blend, and thereafter drying the shaped pellets at a temperature of 200°C or lower. On the basis of the finding, they have achieved the present invention.
- Specifically, there is provided in accordance with the first aspect of the present invention a method of preparing a hydrotreating catalyst for hydrocarbon oil, in which metals of the Group VI and the Group VIII of the Periodic Table; from 0.3 to 3.5 molar times of the total molar amount of the metals of the Group VI and the Group VIII of the Periodic Table of at least one carboxylic acid selected from glycolic acid, lactic acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, citric acid, glyceric acid, gluconic acid, methoxy-acetic acid, ethoxy-acetic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid and glyoxylic acid; and 0.1 times or more of the amount necessary for making the Group VI and Group VIII metals to their sulphides of at least one organic sulphur compound selected from mercapto-acetic acid, 1-mercapto-propionic acid, 2-mercapto-propionic acid, 2,3-dimercapto-succinic acid, mercapto-succinic acid, thio-acetic acid, thiodiglycolic acid, dithio-diglycolic acid, thio-salicylic acid, mercaptoethanol, β-thiodiglycol and thiourea are added together to a material substance consisting essentially of at least one inorganic oxide selected from alumina, silica, titania and zirconia and/or its hydrate, and the resulting product is kneaded, shaped and then dried at a temperature of 200°C or lower to form the catalyst.
- Preferably, the Group VI and the Group VIII metals and from 0.1 to 8 % by weight, as P₂0₅, of phosphorus are also added to the material substance together with the said at least one carboxylic acid and the said at least one organic sulphur compound.
- The catalyst material substance for use in the present invention is composed of at least one of inorganic oxides, of alumina, silica, titania and zirconia, and/or its hydrates.
- As the metals of the Group VI of the Periodic Table for use in the present invention, at least one of molybdenum and tungsten may be used; and as the metals of the Group VIII of the same, at least one of cobalt and nickel may be used. The amount of these metals to be added may be such that is generally used in preparing an ordinary hydrotreating catalyst. For instance, the amount of the metal(s) of the Group VI to be added is preferably from 5 to 30 % by weight as MoO₃ and/or WO₃; and that of the metal(s) of the Group VIII to be added is from 1 to 8 % by weight as CoO and/or NiO. If the amounts of the metals are less than the defined ranges, a high-activity catalyst could not be obtained. If, on the other hand, the amounts are more than the same, the pores of the materials would be clogged with the active metals so that internal diffusion of the hydrocarbon oil as applied to the hydrotreating catalyst would be impaired and the activity of the catalyst would be low.
- As phosphorus, any form of metaphosphoric acid, pyrophosphoric acid and orthophosphoric acid may be used. As the case may be, a soluble salt such as nickel phosphate may also be used. The amount of the phosphorus to be in the catalyst is from 0.1 to 8 % by weight as P₂O₅. By incorporating phosphorus of the amount as defined above into the catalyst, the phosphorus acts as a stabilizer when the active metals are infiltrated into the catalyst material whereby the activity of the catalyst is elevated further more.
- As carboxylic acids, at least one is selected from glycolic acid, lactic acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, citric acid, glyceric acid, gluconic acid, methoxy-acetic acid, ethoxyacetic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid and glyoxylic acid and is added to the metals of the Group VI and the Group VIII of the Periodic Table optionally along with phosphorus. The amount of the acid(s) to be added is from 0.3 to 3.5 molar times of the total molar amount of the metals of the Group VI and the Group VIII of the Periodic Table. If the amount is less than 0.3 molar times, the catalyst formed could not have a sufficient activity. If, on the contrary, it is more than 3.5 molar times, carbonaceous materials would remain or precipitate in the catalyst after pre-sulfurization to interfere with sulfurization of the active metals. Anyhow, addition of too large amount or too little amount of such carboxylic acid(s) overstepping the defined range is unfavorable as they would lower the activity of the catalyst.
- As organic sulfur compounds, at least one is selected from mercapto-acetic acid, 1-mercapto-propionic acid, 2-mercapto-propionic acid, 2,3-dimercapto-succinic acid, mercapto-succinic acid, thio-acetic acid, thio-diglycolic acid, dithio-diglycolic acid, thio-salicylic acid, mercaptoethanol, β-thiodiglycol and thiourea and is added to the metals of the Group VI and the Group VIII of the Periodic Table along with the above-mentioned carboxylic acid(s) and optionally along with phosphorus. The amount of the compound(s) is 0.1 times or more of the amount necessary for converting the metals of the Group VI and the Group VIII of the Periodic Table into their sulfides, and it is sufficiently from 0.1 to 0.5 times of the same. If the compound(s) is/are added in an amount more than the defined range, the catalyst activity would no more be elevated further. In consideration of the manufacture cost, the amount of the organic sulfur compound(s) to be added is preferably as small as possible within the allowed range.
- These components are kneaded, shaped and then dried. The drying temperature is 200°C or lower. If it is higher than 200°C, the carboxylic acid(s) and organic sulfur compound(s) as added would be decomposed.
- The catalyst of the present invention, which has been prepared under the condition of satisfying the above-mentioned elements, is in such a form where the active metal ions of molybdenum, tungsten, cobalt and/or nickel are complexed with the above-mentioned carboxylic acid(s) to form coordinate compounds and the coordinate compounds are stably held on the catalyst material. By addition of a small amount of the above-mentioned organic sulfur compound(s) to the catalyst, the catalyst activity is further more elevated. Though not clarified, this is because of the following reasons. Where only carboxylic acid(s) is/are added to the catalyst, the added carboxylic acid(s) would be stored in the pores of the catalyst material so that the pores would be clogged with the stored acid(s) and therefore the active metals in the inside of the pores could hardly be sulfurized in the pre-sulfurization. This would have an influence on the hydrotreating activity of the catalyst. However, by addition of a small amount of organic sulfur compound(s) to the catalyst of such a condition, sulfurization of the active metals would be accelerated so that the resulting catalyst may have an elevated high activity.
- Next, the present invention will be explained in more detail by way of the following examples, which, however, are not intended to restrict the scope of the present invention.
- 400 ml of an aqueous solution of active metals, as prepared from 119 g of molybdenum trioxide, 34.6 g of cobalt carbonate, 229 g of glycolic acid, 23 g of mercaptoethanol and water, was added to 1000 g of alumina hydrate (water content: 60 % by weight) and kneaded under heat at 80°C. The resulting blend was then shaped into cylindrical pellets each having a diameter of 1.6 mm through an extruder. The shaped cylindrical pellets were then dried at 100°C for 16 hours to obtain catalyst A.
- Regarding the metal content in the catalyst A, the content of molybdenum was 22 % by weight as MoO₃, and that of cobalt was 4 % by weight as CoO. The amount of the glycolic acid added was 2.6 molar times of the total molar amount of the metals of the Group VI and the Group VIII of the Periodic Table; and the amount of the mercaptoethanol added was 0.15 times of the amount necessary for converting molybdenum and cobalt to MoS₂ and CoS, respectively. As the activity test of the catalyst A thus prepared, hydrotreatment and desulfurization of Kuwait normal pressure light oil was effected with it. The oil used for the treatment had the following properties.
-
- A rate constant was calculated under the condition that the desulfurization rate is considered to be proportional to the 1.75th power of the sulfur concentration of the raw material normal pressure light oil.
